Natural gas prices are regional not international so Germany spends a lot more to make electricity then we do. Thus the breakeven on solar is at a different point. They subsidized their solar power in addition to this. The sun thing is stupid but they committed to solar because it makes sense for them as they import their natural gas from Russia.
